Exodus Chapter 15
15:1Then sang Moses and the children of Israel this song unto Yahweh, and spake, saying, I will sing unto Yahweh, for he hath triumphed gloriously: the horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea.
15:2Yah is my strength and song, and he is become my salvation: he is my El, and I will prepare him an habitation; my father's Elohim, and I will exalt him.
15:3Yahweh is a man of war: Yahweh is his name.
15:4Pharaoh's chariots and his host hath he cast into the sea: his chosen captains also are drowned in the Red sea.
15:5The depths have covered them: they sank into the bottom as a stone.
15:6Thy right hand, O Yahweh, is become glorious in power: thy right hand, O Yahweh, hath dashed in pieces the enemy.
15:7And in the greatness of thine excellency thou hast overthrown them that rose up against thee: thou sentest forth thy wrath, which consumed them as stubble.
15:8And with the blast of thy nostrils the waters were gathered together, the floods stood upright as an heap, and the depths were congealed in the heart of the sea.
15:9The enemy said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil; my lust shall be satisfied upon them; I will draw my sword, my hand shall destroy them.
15:10Thou didst blow with thy wind, the sea covered them: they sank as lead in the mighty waters.
15:11Who is like unto thee, O Yahweh, among the mighty? who is like thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders?
15:12Thou stretchedst out thy right hand, the earth swallowed them.
15:13Thou in thy mercy hast led forth the people which thou hast redeemed: thou hast guided them in thy strength unto thy holy habitation.
15:14The people shall hear, and be afraid: sorrow shall take hold on the inhabitants of Palestina.
15:15Then the dukes of Edom shall be amazed; the mighty men of Moab, trembling shall take hold upon them; all the inhabitants of Canaan shall melt away.
15:16Fear and dread shall fall upon them; by the greatness of thine arm they shall be as still as a stone; till thy people pass over, O Yahweh, till the people pass over, which thou hast purchased.
15:17Thou shalt bring them in, and plant them in the mountain of thine inheritance, in the place, O Yahweh, which thou hast made for thee to dwell in, in the Sanctuary, O Yahweh, which thy hands have established.
15:18Yahweh shall reign for ever and ever.
15:19For the horse of Pharaoh went in with his chariots and with his horsemen into the sea, and Yahweh brought again the waters of the sea upon them; but the children of Israel went on dry land in the midst of the sea.
15:20And Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took a timbrel in her hand; and all the women went out after her with timbrels and with dances.
15:21And Miriam answered them, Sing ye to Yahweh, for he hath triumphed gloriously; the horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea.
15:22So Moses brought Israel from the Red sea, and they went out into the wilderness of Shur; and they went three days in the wilderness, and found no water.
15:23And when they came to Marah, they could not drink of the waters of Marah, for they were bitter: therefore the name of it was called Marah.
15:24And the people murmured against Moses, saying, What shall we drink?
15:25And he cried unto Yahweh; and Yahweh shewed him a tree, which when he had cast into the waters, the waters were made sweet: there he made for them a statute and an ordinance, and there he proved them,
15:26And said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of Yahweh thy Elohim, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am Yahweh that healeth thee.
15:27And they came to Elim, where were twelve wells of water, and threescore and ten palm trees: and they encamped there by the waters.
15:1Then sang Moses and the children of Israel this song unto Yahweh, and spake, saying, I will sing unto Yahweh, for he hath triumphed gloriously: the horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea.
15:2Yah is my strength and song, and he is become my salvation: he is my El, and I will prepare him an habitation; my father's Elohim, and I will exalt him.
15:3Yahweh is a man of war: Yahweh is his name.
15:4Pharaoh's chariots and his host hath he cast into the sea: his chosen captains also are drowned in the Red sea.
15:5The depths have covered them: they sank into the bottom as a stone.
15:6Thy right hand, O Yahweh, is become glorious in power: thy right hand, O Yahweh, hath dashed in pieces the enemy.
15:7And in the greatness of thine excellency thou hast overthrown them that rose up against thee: thou sentest forth thy wrath, which consumed them as stubble.
15:8And with the blast of thy nostrils the waters were gathered together, the floods stood upright as an heap, and the depths were congealed in the heart of the sea.
15:9The enemy said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil; my lust shall be satisfied upon them; I will draw my sword, my hand shall destroy them.
15:10Thou didst blow with thy wind, the sea covered them: they sank as lead in the mighty waters.
15:11Who is like unto thee, O Yahweh, among the mighty? who is like thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders?
15:12Thou stretchedst out thy right hand, the earth swallowed them.
15:13Thou in thy mercy hast led forth the people which thou hast redeemed: thou hast guided them in thy strength unto thy holy habitation.
15:14The people shall hear, and be afraid: sorrow shall take hold on the inhabitants of Palestina.
15:15Then the dukes of Edom shall be amazed; the mighty men of Moab, trembling shall take hold upon them; all the inhabitants of Canaan shall melt away.
15:16Fear and dread shall fall upon them; by the greatness of thine arm they shall be as still as a stone; till thy people pass over, O Yahweh, till the people pass over, which thou hast purchased.
15:17Thou shalt bring them in, and plant them in the mountain of thine inheritance, in the place, O Yahweh, which thou hast made for thee to dwell in, in the Sanctuary, O Yahweh, which thy hands have established.
15:18Yahweh shall reign for ever and ever.
15:19For the horse of Pharaoh went in with his chariots and with his horsemen into the sea, and Yahweh brought again the waters of the sea upon them; but the children of Israel went on dry land in the midst of the sea.
15:20And Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took a timbrel in her hand; and all the women went out after her with timbrels and with dances.
15:21And Miriam answered them, Sing ye to Yahweh, for he hath triumphed gloriously; the horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea.
15:22So Moses brought Israel from the Red sea, and they went out into the wilderness of Shur; and they went three days in the wilderness, and found no water.
15:23And when they came to Marah, they could not drink of the waters of Marah, for they were bitter: therefore the name of it was called Marah.
15:24And the people murmured against Moses, saying, What shall we drink?
15:25And he cried unto Yahweh; and Yahweh shewed him a tree, which when he had cast into the waters, the waters were made sweet: there he made for them a statute and an ordinance, and there he proved them,
15:26And said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of Yahweh thy Elohim, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am Yahweh that healeth thee.
15:27And they came to Elim, where were twelve wells of water, and threescore and ten palm trees: and they encamped there by the waters.
Joshua Chapter 15
15:1This then was the lot of the tribe of the children of Judah by their families; even to the border of Edom the wilderness of Zin southward was the uttermost part of the south coast.
15:2And their south border was from the shore of the salt sea, from the bay that looketh southward:
15:3And it went out to the south side to Maalehacrabbim, and passed along to Zin, and ascended up on the south side unto Kadeshbarnea, and passed along to Hezron, and went up to Adar, and fetched a compass to Karkaa:
15:4From thence it passed toward Azmon, and went out unto the river of Egypt; and the goings out of that coast were at the sea: this shall be your south coast.
15:5And the east border was the salt sea, even unto the end of Jordan. And their border in the north quarter was from the bay of the sea at the uttermost part of Jordan:
15:6And the border went up to Bethhogla, and passed along by the north of Betharabah; and the border went up to the stone of Bohan the son of Reuben:
15:7And the border went up toward Debir from the valley of Achor, and so northward, looking toward Gilgal, that is before the going up to Adummim, which is on the south side of the river: and the border passed toward the waters of Enshemesh, and the goings out thereof were at Enrogel:
15:8And the border went up by the valley of the son of Hinnom unto the south side of the Jebusite; the same is Jerusalem: and the border went up to the top of the mountain that lieth before the valley of Hinnom westward, which is at the end of the valley of the giants northward:
15:9And the border was drawn from the top of the hill unto the fountain of the water of Nephtoah, and went out to the cities of mount Ephron; and the border was drawn to Baalah, which is Kirjathjearim:
15:10And the border compassed from Baalah westward unto mount Seir, and passed along unto the side of mount Jearim, which is Chesalon, on the north side, and went down to Bethshemesh, and passed on to Timnah:
15:11And the border went out unto the side of Ekron northward: and the border was drawn to Shicron, and passed along to mount Baalah, and went out unto Jabneel; and the goings out of the border were at the sea.
15:12And the west border was to the great sea, and the coast thereof. This is the coast of the children of Judah round about according to their families.
15:13And unto Caleb the son of Jephunneh he gave a part among the children of Judah, according to the commandment of Yahweh to Joshua, even the city of Arba the father of Anak, which city is Hebron.
15:14And Caleb drove thence the three sons of Anak, Sheshai, and Ahiman, and Talmai, the children of Anak.
15:15And he went up thence to the inhabitants of Debir: and the name of Debir before was Kirjathsepher.
15:16And Caleb said, He that smiteth Kirjathsepher, and taketh it, to him will I give Achsah my daughter to wife.
15:17And Othniel the son of Kenaz, the brother of Caleb, took it: and he gave him Achsah his daughter to wife.
15:18And it came to pass, as she came unto him, that she moved him to ask of her father a field: and she lighted off her donkey; and Caleb said unto her, What wouldest thou?
15:19Who answered, Give me a blessing; for thou hast given me a south land; give me also springs of water. And he gave her the upper springs, and the nether springs.
15:20This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Judah according to their families.

15:47Ashdod with her towns and her villages, Gaza with her towns and her villages, unto the river of Egypt, and the great sea, and the border thereof:
15:48And in the mountains, Shamir, and Jattir, and Socoh,

15:63As for the Jebusites the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the children of Judah could not drive them out: but the Jebusites dwell with the children of Judah at Jerusalem unto this day.
15:1This then was the lot of the tribe of the children of Judah by their families; even to the border of Edom the wilderness of Zin southward was the uttermost part of the south coast.
15:2And their south border was from the shore of the salt sea, from the bay that looketh southward:

John Chapter 15
15:1I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman.
15:2Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.
15:3Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you.
15:4Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.
15:5I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.
15:6If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.
15:7If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.
15:8Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples.
15:9As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love.
15:10If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.
15:11These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.
15:12This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.
15:13Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
15:14Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you.
15:15Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his master doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.
15:16Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.
15:17These things I command you, that ye love one another.
15:18If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you.
15:19If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.
15:20Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his master. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also.
15:21But all these things will they do unto you for my name's sake, because they know not him that sent me.
15:22If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had sin: but now they have no cloke for their sin.
15:23He that hateth me hateth my Father also.
15:24If I had not done among them the works which none other man did, they had not had sin: but now have they both seen and hated both me and my Father.
15:25But this cometh to pass, that the word might be fulfilled that is written in their law, They hated me without a cause.
15:26But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:
15:27And ye also shall bear witness, because ye have been with me from the beginning.
15:1I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman.
15:2Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.
15:3Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you.
15:4Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.
15:5I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.
15:6If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.
15:7If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.
15:8Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples.
15:9As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love.
15:10If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.
15:11These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.
15:12This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.
15:13Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
15:14Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you.
15:15Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his master doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.
15:16Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.
15:17These things I command you, that ye love one another.
15:18If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you.
15:19If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.
15:20Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his master. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also.
15:21But all these things will they do unto you for my name's sake, because they know not him that sent me.
15:22If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had sin: but now they have no cloke for their sin.
15:23He that hateth me hateth my Father also.
15:24If I had not done among them the works which none other man did, they had not had sin: but now have they both seen and hated both me and my Father.
15:25But this cometh to pass, that the word might be fulfilled that is written in their law, They hated me without a cause.
15:26But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:
15:27And ye also shall bear witness, because ye have been with me from the beginning.

15:1And certain men which came down from Judaea taught the brethren, and said, Except ye be circumcised after the manner of Moses, ye cannot be saved.
15:2When therefore Paul and Barnabas had no small dissension and disputation with them, they determined that Paul and Barnabas, and certain other of them, should go up to Jerusalem unto the apostles and elders about this question.
15:3And being brought on their way by the assembly, they passed through Phenice and Samaria, declaring the conversion of the Gentiles: and they caused great joy unto all the brethren.
15:4And when they were come to Jerusalem, they were received of the assembly, and of the apostles and elders, and they declared all things that Elohim had done with them.
15:5But there rose up certain of the sect of the Pharisees which believed, saying, That it was needful to circumcise them, and to command them to keep the law of Moses.
15:6And the apostles and elders came together for to consider of this matter.
15:7And when there had been much disputing, Peter rose up, and said unto them, Men and brethren, ye know how that a good while ago Elohim made choice among us, that the Gentiles by my mouth should hear the word of the good news, and believe.
15:8And Elohim, which knoweth the hearts, bare them witness, giving them the Holy Spirit, even as he did unto us;
15:9And put no difference between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith.
15:10Now therefore why tempt ye Elohim, to put a yoke upon the neck of the disciples, which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?
15:11But we believe that through the grace of the Sovereign Yahshua Messiah we shall be saved, even as they.
15:12Then all the multitude kept silence, and gave audience to Barnabas and Paul, declaring what miracles and wonders Elohim had wrought among the Gentiles by them.
15:13And after they had held their peace, James answered, saying, Men and brethren, hearken unto me:
15:14Simeon hath declared how Elohim at the first did visit the Gentiles, to take out of them a people for his name.
15:15And to this agree the words of the prophets; as it is written,
15:16After this I will return, and will build again the tabernacle of David, which is fallen down; and I will build again the ruins thereof, and I will set it up:
15:17That the residue of men might seek after Yahweh, and all the Gentiles, upon whom my name is called, saith Yahweh, who doeth all these things.
15:18Known unto Elohim are all his works from the beginning of the world.
15:19Wherefore my sentence is, that we trouble not them, which from among the Gentiles are turned to Elohim:
15:20But that we write unto them, that they abstain from pollutions of idols, and from fornication, and from things strangled, and from blood.
15:21For Moses of old time hath in every city them that preach him, being read in the synagogues every sabbath day.
15:22Then pleased it the apostles and elders with the whole assembly, to send chosen men of their own company to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas; namely, Judas surnamed Barsabas and Silas, chief men among the brethren:
15:23And they wrote letters by them after this manner; The apostles and elders and brethren send greeting unto the brethren which are of the Gentiles in Antioch and Syria and Cilicia:
15:24Forasmuch as we have heard, that certain which went out from us have troubled you with words, subverting your souls, saying, Ye must be circumcised, and keep the law: to whom we gave no such commandment:
15:25It seemed good unto us, being assembled with one accord, to send chosen men unto you with our beloved Barnabas and Paul,
15:26Men that have hazarded their lives for the name of our Sovereign Yahshua Messiah.
15:27We have sent therefore Judas and Silas, who shall also tell you the same things by mouth.
15:28For it seemed good to the Holy Spirit, and to us, to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things;
15:29That ye abstain from meats offered to idols, and from blood, and from things strangled, and from fornication: from which if ye keep yourselves, ye shall do well. Fare ye well.
15:30So when they were dismissed, they came to Antioch: and when they had gathered the multitude together, they delivered the epistle:
15:31Which when they had read, they rejoiced for the consolation.
15:32And Judas and Silas, being prophets also themselves, exhorted the brethren with many words, and confirmed them.
15:33And after they had tarried there a space, they were let go in peace from the brethren unto the apostles.
15:34Notwithstanding it pleased Silas to abide there still.
15:35Paul also and Barnabas continued in Antioch, teaching and preaching the word of Yahweh, with many others also.
15:36And some days after Paul said unto Barnabas, Let us go again and visit our brethren in every city where we have preached the word of Yahweh, and see how they do.
15:37And Barnabas determined to take with them John, whose surname was Mark.
15:38But Paul thought not good to take him with them, who departed from them from Pamphylia, and went not with them to the work.
15:39And the contention was so sharp between them, that they departed asunder one from the other : and so Barnabas took Mark, and sailed unto Cyprus;
15:40And Paul chose Silas, and departed, being recommended by the brethren unto the grace of Elohim.
15:41And he went through Syria and Cilicia, confirming the assemblies.
15:1And certain men which came down from Judaea taught the brethren, and said, Except ye be circumcised after the manner of Moses, ye cannot be saved.
